Since it's virtually impossible to gain a considerate amount of muscle and burn a considerate amount of fat at the same time. ( Oh and you must do cardio to lose a moderate amount of fat, dieting wont do it alone.) And geez man your 15 years old your not even fully grown, you do not need surgery, hell thats probably still your baby fat that you havent lost yet hehe just kidding...

First of all, higher reps do not tone your muscles. Toning comes from lowering your body fat. Increasing muscle mass can also help to a certain degree. This is a very wide spread myth. You will not get bulkier and fatter while doing low reps and high weight unless you are eating too much. If anything, adding that muscle mass is going to help you lose fat because your metabolism will be increasing. Not to mention that resistance training burns a lot of calories in and of itself. Also, you do not need to do cardio to lose fat. You can do cardio to help you lose fat, but proper diet is all you need. |

Eh... well i guess this is where we beg to differ.... read this http://www.highnrg.com/ask_trainer/qanda.htm#8 and this is not the only source that supports this theory, and come on, as a 15 year old, I know I never had the discipline to keep a strict diet at such a young age while all your friends are eating Burger King and Pizza Hut, so I figure your going to cheat a bit, and that's where the cardio comes in, also cardio does much more than help you lose bodyfat. Running can also tone muscles (abs, quads, hams, glutes). So I def. do suggest some cardio...

You're a faster learner than I am.

Agreed! I dont think we could ever enforce it though.

Do pullovers, incline chest press, etc. |
i won't do it again (after this one) - promise.

. But for a heavy ass 1968 camaro on a one legger it didn't do to badly. We are talking about Camaros Mudge. Let's stay within the family and weight class
" Intake Manifold Composite " That sure does sound better than "cheap plastic intake manifold".

240z's running LOW 11's with 350hp? What do they weigh 1,500lbs? lmao Maybe a lotus super 7 with an ls1 HEHE " Intake Manifold Composite " That sure does sound better than "cheap plastic intake manifold". |

So when I mentioned 13's , I thought it was pretty fast for 273 freeway gears in a one legger with a car that heavy running basically a stock stroker

. That's just when the car starts pulling any way, I couldn't even get out of 3rd gear at the strip. I'm a DE/ solo II kind of guy. I also compete in SCCA central division club rally in an open class 92' talon (around 400awhp). That's a mid to high 12's car in the dirt
. Nothing beats launching with a studder box.
